NSSE 2014 Frequencies and Statistical ComparisonsAbout This Report

The Frequencies and Statistical Comparisons report presents item-by-item student responses and statistical comparisons that allow you to examine patterns of similarity and difference between your students and those at your

comparison group institutions. The report uses information from all randomly selected or census-administered students. The display below highlights important details in the report to keep in mind when interpreting your

results. For more information please visit our Web site (nsse.iub.edu) or contact a member of the NSSE team.

Item numbers: Numbering corresponds to the survey

facsimile included in your Institutional Report and available

on the NSSE Web site.

Statistical comparisons: Items with mean differences that are

larger than would be expected by chance are noted with asterisks

referring to three significance levels (*p<.05, **p<.01, ***p<.001).

Significance levels indicate the probability that an observed

difference is due to chance. Statistical significance does not

guarantee the result is substantive or important. Large sample sizes

tend to generate more statistically significant results even

though the magnitude of mean differences may be inconsequential.

Consult effect sizes (see #7) to judge the practical meaning of differences.

Unless otherwise noted, statistical comparisons are two-tailed

independent t -tests. Exceptions are items 11 a-f which are compared

using a z -test.

Item wording and variable names: Survey items are in the

same order and wording as they appear on the instrument.

Variable names are included for easy reference to your data

file and codebook.

Values and response options: Values are used to calculate means.

Response options are worded as they appear on the instrument.

Count and column percentage (%): The Count column contains the

number of students who selected the corresponding response option. The

column percentage is the weighted percentage of students selecting the

corresponding response option.

Note: Column percentages and statistics are weighted by institution-

reported sex and enrollment status. Comparison group statistics are also

weighted by institutional size. Counts are unweighted and cannot be used to

replicate column percentages. For details visit:

nsse.iub.edu/html/weighting.cfm

Effect size: Effect size indicates practical significance. An effect size of .2 is often considered small, .5 moderate, and .8 large. A

positive effect size indicates that your institution’s mean was greater than that of the comparison group, thus showing a favorable result

for your institution. A negative effect size indicates your institution lags behind the comparison group, suggesting that the student

behavior or institutional practice represented by the item may warrant attention. Effect sizes for independent t -tests use Cohen's d; z -

tests use Cohen's h . Cohen's d is calculated by dividing the mean difference by the pooled standard deviation. Cohen's h is calculated

by taking the difference in the proportion of students who responded “Done or in progress” after the proportion has been transformed

using a non-linear (arcsine) transformation. See: Cohen, J. (1988). Statistical power analysis for the behavioral sciences (2nd

edition). New York: Psychology Press.

i. A measure of the amount individual scores deviate from the mean of all the scores in the distribution.

j. Degrees of freedom used to compute the t-tests. Values differ from Ns due to weighting and whether equal variances were assumed.

k.

l. Mean represents the proportion who responded “Done or in progress.”

Standard error of the mean for ordered and continuous variables; standard error of the proportion for items indicating “Done or in progress” (high-impact practices). The 95% confidence interval is equal to the sample mean

plus or minus 1.96 times the standard error of the mean.

Statistical comparisons are two-tailed independent t-tests or z-tests. Statistical significance represents the probability that the difference between your students' mean and that of the comparison group is due to chance.


Items which make up the Engagement Indicators include the following two-letter prefixes: CL = Collaborative Learning, DD = Discussions with Diverse Others, ET = Effective Teaching Practices, HO = Higher-Order

Learning, LS = Learning Strategies, QI = Quality of Interactions, QR = Quantitative Reasoning, RI = Reflective & Integrative Learning, SE = Supportive Environment, and SF = Student-Faculty Interaction.

Statistics are weighted by institution-reported sex and enrollment status (and institution size for comparison groups).

These are the values used to calculate means. For the majority of items, these values match the codes in the data file and codebook. For items estimating number of papers and hours per week, the values represent actual

units using the midpoints of response option ranges and an estimate for unbounded options.

Effect size for independent t-tests uses Cohen's d; z-tests use Cohen's h. See page 2 for more details.

Statistical comparison uses z-test to compare the percentage who responded "Done or in progress."

Column percentages are weighted by institution-reported sex and enrollment status (and institution size for comparison groups). Percentages may not sum to 100 due to rounding. Counts are unweighted; column

percentages cannot be replicated from counts.

All statistics are weighted by institution-reported sex and enrollment status (and institution size for comparison groups). Means calculated from ordered response options (e.g., Very often, Often, Sometimes, Never) assume

equal intervals and should be interpreted with caution. Unless otherwise noted, statistical comparisons are two-tailed independent t-tests. Exceptions are the dichotomous high-impact practice items (11a to 11f) which are

compared using a z-test.
